OF VENGEANCE —|
THE RENO TRAGEDY.

The Louisville Courier Journal of the 16th
contains the following interestingly details
which did not appear in the hastily prepared
reporta, first published of the lynching affair at
New Albany :— }

Fran Reno and Charles Anderson were!
married After they weve laid out upon the
floor in the jail hall, the wives ot these two
wieu wud Miss Reno, the sister of the three!
brothers, were permitted to enter the hail to
take thejr Jost look of those who, alihoush
covered with erige, were mn their lives all the |
world to them. Ab, whafa scene was there !|
What unutierable woe ! what yriefand anguish!
The three women entered paler by far thau |
the dead bodies stretched out so stark and
vhastly upon the prison fluor. First came |
from these despairing women such piercing |
shrieks as love vuly can utter when it feels that
all it lived for is lost forever. Then tears like |
rain, bursting from overflown fountains, and!

}monns so tou hing in thear pluintiveuess aud

ulter despair, that not even tie most stolid
could keep trom weeping. Then followed that
quat, almost stolid look, « sort ot blank, pur-
posless agony, that tells that hearts ure break-
ing, that grief’s work is perfecily dove. Creat
(iod! what a spectacle of utter woe it was!
The outburst of grief ended, the quiet of des. |
pair settled upon the feces of the women. Rut }
not long did one of them remain under the!
burden. The sister of the three R- no brothers, |
qo intelligent and handsome young lady, dried |
bev eyes with her handkerchiel, then, taking |
the yrief stamed piece of linen, she placed it|
over the face of her brother William, who to;
the Jast declared his innocence ; thea sie kneel |
ed beside the dead man, and laid her left hand
oyer bis heart and, raising her right band to-
yards heaven, she tock w terrivle oath: “Ou !
iny pgor murdered brather, may God curse
your sistep it she ave fige not your death terri-|
ble aud tuily. This I will do, se he!p me!
fiod!* Whiat a tragic scene was this, —the
dark, strony walig on all sides, and evld si one
Huor under her knees—jhe gable vurwenta of
the bereaved sister, the pale faces turned up-;
ward and the white ha. d pointing b. avpuward !

STEAM COMMUPUCATION,

Wa nre much pleased to find that the suiject
of Steam Communication between Georgetown
and the Strait of Canso, or any suitable place

acrosa the Gulf, is «ttracting and receiving the

attenticn of our contemporaries as well as of
the general public.
That a steamer, suitably constructed, equip-

ped and manned for the service could, any |
year, run with comparative regularity between |
Georgetown aud Canso, or some other point
on the Maintand, for a month or six weeks
after the navigation is clos d in Charlottetown
or Summerside, admits of no doubt. During
the present season we do not believe there has
been any thing as yet thet would prevent @
property coustructed steawer from making her
regular trips. We have often heard of small

schooners, produce-'aden, leaving Souris,

Gand Kiver and Georgetown, for market,
as late as Cliistinag or New Year's, and some-

times all ¢hrough dhe month of January,

It may, perhaps, be objected that were a
steamer of a suitable description placed on the
the people |

above route for winter service,
would not then rest satisfied until they had
Geor zetown, Charlottetown, Summerside, and,
perhaps, other places cornected by railroad ;
for we have often seen the winter supplies of |
Charlottetown and Summerside merchants
landed jn Georgetown during the month of |
December and even the early part of Jauuary, |
when they either had to be left here till gpring
or hauled, at a great expense, to their places
of destination. Well, we can only say that if, |
in theory, a railroad follows as a necessary |
c nyequen e,and as a matter of course, from the |

proposed steamboat comimunigation, the soon-

e: the theory is reduced to practice the better.

Byt woulda railroad between Charlottetown
and Georgetown, or any other part of the

Island, poy? Now, this is not the way in |
which we would wish to see the question put ; |
but by asuing ourselyes if a railroad would |
help materially to give an additional impetus |
to our commerce, and develop the resources of

the country ?

Many persons will foc the}
idea of a railroad ruaning im a direct line from |
Southport to Georgetown, and then ask them-!
selves what there is toemploy a railroad on
such a route for even a cousiderable part of
the year. Irgteag of opening a line by
the most direct route from Bouthport to George
town, our idea would be to start from Charlottes |
